[QUOTE="RedCliff, post: 295534, member: 5829"] [b]Re: Storm[/b] Quite correct. That's why there's a lot of requirements. The aspirant Storm must meet five of the ones listed. I was lacking the insight of minimum level requirements at the time, and was going for number of requirements over height. This is one of those that will indeed require some retooling. Again, quite true. I was counting on the wisdom of the DM to insert something appropriate, but a little guidance couldn't hurt. Hmm... CR 12 sounds about right, given what we know now. Yup. 1 per power level. I was afriad that this would make the power nearly useless the higher up it went in level (topping out at -10 per attack), but I can see where a -5 for five additional attacks could be unbalancing. I'll need to play with it some to find a happy medium somewhere. Others had suggested making available power level times/day. I probably did err on the side of modesty, in the desperate attempts to keep it balanced. This one seems to be popular. I'm fine with that. :D I hadn't intended it to, but in looking at the text, I notice I didn't even specify how many times per day you're allowed to do it. Another revision. I'll be honest. Back when, though I was thoroughly disgusted with 2E (Back in my day, we had 1E, and we [b][i]liked[/i][/b] it) I somehow wound up with the complete book of barbarians. There were several different barbarian kits in there that had different kind of rages. For whatever reason, the idea absolutely fascinated me. So I tried to do something with that here. Unfortunately, I don't really like the results of either of them. The rages are both too similar to the barbarian rage, and not nearly distinctive enough. Go figure a week after the contest is done I get a slew of much better ideas for varied rages. Such is the way of things. Needless to say, this section is also needing of a big revision. What is it that's weak? Is it the one time/day thing again? I was thinking of kicking that up to power level/day too. Otherwise it's a group stunning attack, which seems reasonably powerful (I don't know what your opinions are on the monk's stunning attack). Thanks for all the feedback. I've found it incredibly useful, and I truly do appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
